There Has Been No Election of Pi e! cipal as Gentleman Elected Is .s Ineligible, It is Said. t Editor Herald and News: I have witnessed, with conc( 1, tht evidences of unrest in relat to the action of school board of d trict No. 1, at the time of the h( ing of election for the purpose of supply of instructors for the cc ing scholastic year. Now, while all of the above m tioned board are men of such ch 't acter' as to place them on a plh ;equal to the highest in my rega still, I am forced, for this once, admit that they, like all human: -are liable to error and as public i -vants, subject to unbiased critici: -I have nothing to say regard! the young man from Ohio, who y chosen as principal of 'the scho< enor of that feature of his cari which has given such violent offe: to the descendants of those a sleep beneath the sod of what v sonce "The Southern Confederac save that I am heartily in acc< -with the sentiment which unfo: -the inner-hea,gt tenet of Southla ~ j But, being partly responsible: the existence of the act under wh: - they hold their -being, I am impel: e to call .their attention to Section 1 of an Act of the general assembly I the session of 1905, in regard r Newberry school district, in whi f specific instructions are laid do 1 for their guidance; prominent, a I almost first of which is that porti 1 of the above mentioned section: a. garding thae election of teache - which reads as follows: "Provid That no teacher shall be emnploy by said trustees who is related tC member of the board by consangu: ity or affinity within the third< gree: And provided, further, TI no teacher shall be employed teach in said school who does hold a diploma from a chartered c, lege, within the State, or a fil grade certificate issued by the cot ty board 'of education of Newber county."
